Frankie: I am not going!

Denise: Frankie, Stop it!

Frankie: I won't let you put me in an Ice Bath!

Denise: Frankie! * she says dodging every hit *

Frankie: Leave me alone!

Denise: No! You are out of control! * dodging another punch *

While Denise is trying to get Frankie to comply, his brothers and father come to the house and when they all walk to his bedroom, they see a shocking site.

Paul: Denise, what is going on? 

Frankie: NO ONE WILL PUT ME IN AN ICE BATH!

Nick: Mom! Duck!

Denise: Thanks, Nick. 

Paul: Frankie! Stop It!

Denise: Nick. Joe. Grab him.

Nick: You got it. * he says rushing to grab Frankie with Joe *

Denise: Kevin, start the bath. 

Kevin: Okay.

Denise: Honey, can you get some ice.

Paul: Yes.

Frankie: * Punches Nick in the stomach *

Nick: * hunches over *

Joe: You, okay?

Nick: Yep, I'm good.

Denise: He is out of control.

Joe: Melinda told us that Frankie has been getting high.

Kevin: I got the water going.

Denise: Good.

Paul: Here's some ice.

Denise: As much as I hate to do this to you, you are out of control.

Frankie: NO!

Paul: Franklin Nathanel Jonas!   That is no way to talk to your mother!

Frankie: WHO CARES! 

Denise: FRANKIE! RESPECT YOUR FATHER!

Melinda: Hi, am I disturbing something?

Denise: No, we are trying to get Frankie lucid.

Frankie: Melinda baby, let me f*ck you.

Melinda: Are you serious! 

Paul: FRANKIE!

Melinda: Don't take it personal. Frankie is just high.

Paul: What?

Nick: Frankie has been getting high lately.

Kevin: Yes, he has. We just found out that he has been drinking, smoking, doing drugs, amongst other things.

Paul: How long has this been going?

Nick: For a week I believe.

Denise: Actually, he has been like this for a day. 

Joe: He lied; he has been doing this for a week.

Denise: Why am I just finding out about this now.

Kevin: We told him that he should have come clean with you both as soon as possible, but he refused.

Melinda: He is also bulimic and has been harming himself and trying to commit suicide.

Paul: Oh, my goodness.
